Method:
1. Chop the chocolate into large pieces. Melt the butter until liquefied and add the chopped chocolate.

2. Add the cocoa powder and mix. Then turn off the heat and let cool. Meanwhile in a separate container, whisk the eggs with the sugar to obtain a fluffy consistency.

3. Pour in the chocolate/butter mixture and mix again.

4. Combine the baking powder and flour and mix together. Now add the resulting powder into the chocolate/butter mix, one tablespoon at a time.

5. Coarsely chop all the 5 nuts and add them into the complete chocolate mixture. Remember to keep some nuts for decoration.

6. Pour the mixture evenly into a 14’’ rectangular brownie pan that is lined with parchment paper.

7. Bake in oven at 350 degrees for 35 minutes.
8. Once baked, let the dough rest for 10 minutes before you take it out from the mold.

9. After dividing the brownies evenly, pile 3 pieces on a plate, decorate with nuts, and serve with vanilla ice cream.
